1. what are the exact settings I should be using for charging? if someone has an ice and could give me all of the settings I need that would be very helpful as I am new to this whole thing

2. is it best to always use balancer when charging? is there a downside?

3. what is the purpose of discharging?

4.what is the min I should discharge to, if I need to discharge?

5. can lipo packs be damaged by leaving on trickle charge?

6. is it bad for a lipo pack to put on a charger when it is partially drained?

7. what is the approx temp the packs will be at while charging?

8. any other advice would be helpful with regards to the ice charger?
